The World Of White Ladies

She is still called a white lady, where ever she is.﻿

I would put it this way: White Ladies are our world’s favourite
ghosts. They are tragic, romantic figures wandering the shadowy realm between
this world and the next.White Ladies
are the ghosts of young women who died tragically, often times for love.They are always seen in long white dresses. Every culture seems to have these white lady
phantoms. In most cultures, these spirits were regarded as the ghosts of
deceased ancestress.

Singapore-Malaysia-Thailand-Indonesia

Philippines

The most popular Filipino white lady is the White Lady of
Balete Drive. Like most white ladies, this white lady appears as a long haired
beauty in lovely white gown.

According to one legend, she was raped and killed by
Japanese soldiers during the Japanese occupation of the Philippines in World
War II.While in another story it is
said that she died in a car accident while driving along Balete Drive. Most of the stories associated with her are
told by taxi drivers who have seen her on the road late at night.Other drivers and travellers have also seen
her wandering the lonely moonlit road of Balete Drive.She is often blamed for the accidents along
this road. Most of the stories that have come out about her were told by taxi
